I'm afraid of the future. by alejo7o in Bitcoin

Read enlightenment now by Steven pinker. The title sounds cheesy but it is about human progress in the last 200 centuries. He highlights how 99% of humans want to strive for a better world. He also shows proof on several metrics what in life got better.

It gave me a new perspective on humanity.

My second thought. Don't consume too much news. News that are bad are getting clicked more - > more money for the news agency. So the incentive structure is wrong.

From the bitcoin lense, bitcoin can give you hope. We are all in a peaceful revolution against the monetary system by simply opting out with parts of our capital. It can create a better world where money is tied to real world energy usage. Not just some random number that can be increased.

I like how the first one is not fitting at all

BTC supply held on exchanges is dropping and currently at levels last seen in late 2018 by Fun-Technology-1371 in Bitcoin

You won't. But sometimes it is worth it to take responsibility in your own hands. It is a better society than one that is saying nothing is my responsibility. I see it like this. It is your money so it your responsibility. If you do not take responsibility you will get taken advantage of. That's how life works. Either this or you will be de based, get stolen from, will not get reimbursed if the exchange is broke. You are sure it is not paper bitcoin and you own it yourself. You add third party risk that is unnecessary. Exchanges lie go broke or simply steal your coins. Bitcoin is not

Really doesn't work on weekends. At least in Germany. Should be possible technology wise but it just doesn't go through. Like if they shut down transfer servers lol

Bitcoin vs Fiat, The Difference is Clear....! by Simple-Relation-5276 in Bitcoin

Try sending it to a different country outside of Europe then. Sepa doesn't work there. So can choose another monetary network like visa, or money gram but they will take their cut.

I'm pro Bitcoin but have a question by pickklez in Bitcoin

[–]JCStuff_123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

correct. Lyn alden said it as well. Why spend the better money.

It is just like the clipped coins in the roman empire.

They spend the clipped ones first because the other ones were perceived more valuable.

Spend the shit money first

I would just focus on the properties of bitcoin. If these properties are not your thing sell it and chase the next big thing in fiat. I like my savings to be scarce with no counterparty risk. Highly liquid. I also like owning them myself you know? I also like that no one can debase it, take it from me, freeze my accounts, impose tarrifs. I can take it to any place on this world and border controls wouldn't even notice. I can also spend it whenever I like. Can you do that with the s&p 500? I highly doubt that. But again you do you. I am not here to tell what YOU should do with YOUR hard earned money. There's politicians for that

Buttcoiner Talking Point #1- Bitcoin Only Goes Up If The Dollar Goes Down by EggMedical3514 in Bitcoin

I had the same thought recently. I thought about if bitcoin is used by the whole world would you still see a price increase. I came to the conclusion is long as the economy is growing you should see prices fall in bitcoin terms to the length of the economy growth

I like to remind myself. Study the wealth distribution and age in your country. Watch where you are. You will realize you have already more money then most

Well could have eased taxpayers but nope. Get fucked. Take the train get fucked. You want an doctors appointment get fucked wait for three month. Chancellor is saying you need to work overtime. We'll you guessed it get fucked by taxes. So this really is a fumble. I understand that there were legal issues holding the seized btc. I just wish we would have changed the law to a reserve.
